2. What color are your socks right now? No socks. Never wear them if I don't have to.

4. What was the last thing that you ate? Supper last night, which was chicken soup with wild and brown rice. I made a ton.

5. Can you drive a stick shift? Yes, and spent 20+ years driving nothing but. My car right now is an automatic, and that still seems weird.

7. Last person you spoke to on the phone? My mom.

8. Do you like the person who sent this to you? Yes.
